Hip-hop fans around the world are feeling both nostalgic and emotional as one of rap’s greatest legends, Eminem, just stepped into a whole new role—grandfather. His daughter, Hailie Jade, recently announced the arrival of her baby boy, marking a heartwarming milestone not only for her, but for the man who once rapped about her in every hit track.

Shortly after the news broke, Eminem’s longtime friends and collaborators, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, were among the first to send their love. In a playful but touching moment, Dre posted, “Welcome to the Grandpa Club, Em. Life’s about to get even more real.” Snoop added with his signature humor, “Uncle Snoop just got promoted to Great Uncle! Much love, lil homie.”

Fans flooded social media with memes, clips from old Eminem songs, and emotional messages—many referencing his lyrics about Hailie growing up, and how surreal it is to now see her starting a family of her own.

From Lose Yourself to losing sleep for midnight feedings, Eminem’s journey has come full circle—and it’s nothing short of legendary.
